Q: The water raised at a certain height has...... energy.
  • A. Kinetic
  • B. Potential
  • C. Electric
  • D. Chemical
Correct Answer: Option B - The water raised at a certain height has potential energy. In potential energy, if an object is placed at a height above the earth surface the gravitational force of the Earth is applied in raising it, that is, it has to work against the gravitational force of the Earth in raising an object from the Earth.
